## Turn Any Section into Abstract Art

Shader Frame uses advanced ray-marching techniques to create a continuously evolving, 3D-like frame that responds to mouse movement. Perfect for hero backgrounds, creative portfolios, and eye-catching visual experiences.

## Features

**Hypnotic Visuals**
The component renders a complex, self-shadowing 3D structure that constantly twists and turns, creating a mesmerizing background or focal point.

**Interactive**
Engage your visitors with optional mouse interaction. The shader distorts and ripples as the cursor moves across the frame.

**Fully Customizable**
Fine-tune the visual output with controls for speed, time offset, tint color, brightness, contrast, scale, and distortion intensity.

**Performance Optimized**
Adapts rendering quality based on RenderTarget for smooth performance in both canvas and preview modes.

## Use Cases

**Hero Backgrounds** — Create an immersive, animated backdrop that captivates visitors instantly.

**Creative Portfolios** — Showcase your appreciation for cutting-edge web graphics with this high-end effect.

**Landing Pages** — Make a bold first impression with hypnotic, abstract visuals.

**Section Dividers** — Use as an animated separator between content sections.

### Quick Tips

**Performance** — The shader uses ray-marching which can be GPU-intensive. Use moderate settings on mobile devices.

**Subtle Effects** — Lower distortion (0.5-1) and slower speed (0.5) create elegant, subtle animations.

**Bold Statements** — Higher distortion (3+) with faster speed creates energetic, attention-grabbing visuals.

**Background Usage** — Works great behind text with reduced brightness and increased contrast for readability.
